In the United States, Canada, the Republic of Ireland, and United Kingdom, hiking means walking outdoors on a trail, or off trail, for recreational purposes. A day hike refers to a hike that can be completed in a single day. However, in the United Kingdom, the word walking is also used, as well as rambling, while walking in mountainous areas is called hillwalking. In Northern England, Including the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales, fellwalking describes hill or mountain walks, as fell is the common word for both features there.

Scuba diving is another of the world’s great pastimes. Diving is special in that it offers a mechanism to take a glimpse into a completely different world than what we as human beings are used to….the underwater world.

As a point of reference, Africa is the only continent in the world where one can combine an wildlife safari to view Elephants, Zebra, Rhino, Hippo, and so much more, with a scuba diving holiday. So feel free to plan a scuba diving live aboard trip with us and add on one of our epic wildlife safaris to complete your trip to East and Southern Africa. Having a selection of budget, mid range, and luxury accommodation options to choose from, experienced dive instructors and guides, and a fleet of top quality dive boats and live aboard yachts, we have great scuba diving options for you. Our many years of planning and operating scuba diving live aboard trips to East Africa will ensure you have an epic scuba diving trip to some of the remotest off the beaten track locations in our part of the world.

Scientific studies have proven that spearfishing is the most selective method of fishing known to humans. This is because it is the only form of fishing where one can see their catch before it is caught. Spearfishing is also limited by depth that a person can freedive to, and has no by-catch. Hence we use the words ‘Selective Fishing’ when we address spearfishing. Anyone who eats fish and is concerned for the health of our fisheries, the ocean, and the environment, then spearing their own fish or eating fish that was selected by a spearfisher is the way to address these concerning issues. Furthermore, our self-imposed species harvest list will ensure you are selecting your fish ethically and having minimal or no impact on the fishery you are spearfishing in. We actively promote selective fishing by offering the world’s most selective spearfishing trips.

From our spearfishing bases located in Zanzibar in Tanzania to the Quirimbas Archipelago of northern Mozambique, the Nosy Be Archipelago of northern Madagascar, the Western Cape Region of South Africa, and the Atlantic Ocean waters surrounding Ascension Island, we offer tailor made luxury and mid range trips that target pelagic migratory fish species such as Tunas, Wahoo, Billfish, Trevally, and Mackerel, as well as specific demersal game fish species such as Snappers, Jobfish, and Emperors. None of the fish we catch goes to waste; it’s all either eaten by you who caught it, local communities and fishermen to whom it is donated to, or selectively chosen as bait for other fish. Fish is at times sold and 100% of the proceeds donated to the local communities we spearfish in.

Through our land based trips, world famous live aboard trips, and our freediving and spearfishing school located in Zanzibar, we cater for all levels of spearfishers; experts, intermediate, and beginners. Explore our amazing destinations and allow us to create a spearfishing trip of a lifetime for you, your family, and your friends.
